known as memory sticks or thumb drive devices.
Utility
Utility Overview
The first step when using Utility is to press the corresponding Utility
function button on the Front Panel (on page 13).
Note: When using WaveStation (or any signal generator) it's important
to understand the relationship between the Main Waveform Type
buttons, the Waveform Signal Conditioning function buttons, and the
Save/Recall, Utility, and Help function buttons. See Combined Use of
Waveform, Function, and Configuration Buttons (on page 23).
Main Utility Operations
After pressing the Utility button on the Front Panel (on page 13), select
the desired function using the corresponding Display Menu Operation
buttons.
While details around the Utility operations are covered here, the
following section covers some menu control considerations.
For more information on getting to this point, see Navigating Interfaces,
Adjusting Parameters, and Making Selections (on page 16).
Common Util Menu Controls and Considerations
After pressing the Util button on the Front Panel (on page 13), the
Display Menu Operation buttons are used to select applicable
values and make selections as desired.
A good portion of the operation buttons control two separate
parameters. Operation buttons controlling two parameters have
additional, lighter shaded function labels on them; press the
button once to adjust the top control parameter; twice to adjust
the bottom one. Make adjustments using the Digital Input Front
Panel Controls (on page 27).
